The Northern Bridge in Kyiv is closed to cars from the left bank

In Kyiv, patrol officers have stopped allowing private vehicles onto the Northern Bridge from the left bank, where earlier traffic was partially restored after the shelling. Public transport and military vehicles are allowed to cross to the right bank, while cars are directed to the Podilsk-Voskresensky Bridge. This is reported by the civic initiative «Passengers of Kyiv».

Who can cross the Northern Bridge from the left bank

According to the initiative, the lane for public transport has been cordoned off. It is operating towards the right bank with:

• buses;

• trolleybuses;

• minibuses.

Traffic on the bridge was partially restored on November 8 after a rocket attack on Kyiv, which damaged the road surface and the trolleybus line. At that time, one lane was opened for passenger transport from the left bank to the right bank, and two lanes were opened in the opposite direction for passenger transport and cars.

How to get to Sky Mall and Muromets Park

Patrol officers direct private cars to the Podilsk-Voskresensky Bridge, even if drivers are heading to Sky Mall or Muromets Park. According to «Passengers of Kyiv», cars can reach these locations via the Podil Bridge and then through Podil. Public transport is also available.

Before traveling between the banks, drivers should consider the traffic scheme on the bridges, especially the reversible traffic on the Paton Bridge during peak hours.
